Summary

Luci and Billy traveled to Madison, Wisconsin for the qualifiers for Singlehanded Nationals. Saturday had a solid medium East breeze and both fleets got off 4 races. The second day had much lighter breeze from the South. The racing was very competitive and a lot of the finishes came down to a difference of inches. Unfortunately, both Luci and Billy ended up on the wrong side of tie breakers. Luci lost a tie for 1st and Billy lost a tie for 2nd. It was a great experience for our young sailors and they both have a promising future competing at this event!
